Yeah, quite like the colours/matching headstocks. Less keen on the pickups/TOM/stop tail. _________________

Love the look of that Surf Pearl JM. I've never actually played a guitar with active pickups, but I think it's safe to assume I wouldn't be a fan.
What's the dealio with putting passive humbucker in an active guitar? Any potential issues? _________________ BEIGE PALACE | THANK |

Better but not good. Look at single coils for good. |

Sorry mate, I might be missing something. Where I grew up, calling someone a card or a blue card was a reference to disability. _________________

The active models are interesting, there is definitely a market for them as well.
£309 is a good price considering the advanced electronics, be interesting to hear how they sound. |

Ooh-err, never heard of that! I probably won't say it again in that case. Cheers for picking me up on it.
This is how I meant it (not sure how clear this is but it's a link). Kind of a mock-archaic, sarcastic, semi-affectionate way of calling someone a wind-up merchant. _________________ BEIGE PALACE | THANK |
